He is rich who is content with the least; for contentment is the wealth of nature.
Socrates

As I sit here and look at my SYCKO blades, I ponder, out of all my blade purchases none have given me more joy and satisfaction than these blades from the Yard.

There are the blades and then there is this forum and it's Dogs. After becoming a member on BF years back I seriously decided to stay away from purchasing any high end knives. The forum was full of negative statements and complaints. So and so makes the best blades, or this maker totally screwed me over, so on and so forth. Then I stumbled upon the Yard. I don't even remember how. All I know is that when I went to the forum the posts were positive. I thought, these people thoroughly love these blades so there must be something to them. The kicker was that in relation to the others these were the best priced. I lurked for a while and then came the release of the SOD. There was also a new business plan which meant I didn't have to worry about these blades selling out. Score!

The SOD blew me away. I love my other knives but they are not in this league. I honestly love everything about this blade. The color, coating, choil, etc. It may have taken a couple of months to get but man is it worth it! If someone is willing to be patient with the process then they will not be disappointed. If these blades are making it to China, Norway, and various other countries that have been mentioned in posts then it is clear SYCKO blades are available to all who truly want them. Who cares HOW the business plan works, IT WORKS!

Thanks Scrap Yard, Dan, Patti, Renee and all those behind the scenes. You are doing a fine job and please know that most of us LOVE this new business plan!
